To coincide with all the other summer sales, PWE is selling lifetime subscriptions for $200. The most interesting part about this, however, is the Cardassian front and center in the second picture. Not only was Dukat Right, he was also Thrifty!

"Trait: Activating any Engineering Bridge Officer ability gives 100% dodge chance with 20% deflect for 3 seconds." Huh, that's kinda nice for when you are dropping your turret forests.

Post it in the wiki? Interesting changes in those patch notes. Cost and time will be the key to whether it surpasses rep sets/fleet gear.

Am I reading that right? Are Star Clusters just loving gone? Looks like we might get an exploration re-vamp soon-ish.

Doff missions are easier on tribble, they auto fill the slots with the best ones. http://puu.sh/9BmP3/a21fe4190a.jpg Hovering over the ! at the end of the outcom chance bar will show you what reward you'll get.

I remember doing exploration missions around the first year and just having to go to five planets (after scanning them down) to find five flashy rocks (not marked on map either) on an auto-generated planet. gently caress that poo poo.

Remember too that it only told you how many, not where as it does now. Spent 30 minutes in a space zone once looking for the last anom that I never found.

Also in this setting you are only level 15 because the content dried up and your next mission isnt until level 23. Get exploring, kid. What a waste of time this game was at launch, man.

I kind of wish they'd go to some university and grab one of the dozen or so "automated writing" algorithms floating around and get some really procedurally generated mini-missions. Even Lwaxana marrying the warp core would be an improvement.

You know, of the oddball things, I'm surprised the devs didn't throw out a mission or episode dealing with your computer replicating a duplicate of itself like the one tng episode. Also, I'm one of the shamefuls with a lifetime.

There is sort of one Fed side with Section 31, but sadly it's no holodeck gone wild.

They already were ahead of the industry curve with the whole "gently caress it, you guys make the content for us, we can't be bothered with this poo poo" mission creator.

Really, I wish they'd pour some effort into fixing the Foundry up and then maybe put a system where they can appropriate the good ones into real missions with real rewards.

Veotax posted:Am I reading that right? Are Star Clusters just loving gone? Yeah they're just loving gone. Hit the waypoint for your doff jobs. Don't expect a revamp anytime soon either those exploration missions apparently made up a huge chunk of the downloaded assets thanks to the huge number of lovely maps. Also the only thing the added to the game was a trap that kept catching new players and convincing them to quit before they even got into the episodes. Also if you really want a huge selection of lovely missions designed by emotionless machines devoid of any actual creativity there's still the foundry.

Hmm. I hope Hangars count as 'Special Item' or there's gonna be problems-most of the Advanced hangars were from D-Store. I'm also concerned about the Romulan special ground weapons, which never dropped in the world and were only from D-Store. Last thought is: how useful are these craftables going to BE in this era of rep, rep, rep? The traits sound nice enough, especially that science one(Flat 25% crit chance? Good grief). It's the base items that bug me. This is gonna take a lot of stuff, and probably a lot of time depending on how these duty officer missions are actually timed.

Maybe Starfleet has finally realized how much of a deathtrap those things really are and thus restrict their usage?

Also the only thing the added to the game was a trap that kept catching new players and convincing them to quit before they even got into the episodes. They were good for testing out new builds against weak PvE targets, assuming you got an actual space mission and not some ground poo poo or anomaly scanning. Again, better served by the foundry.

quote:You mean "going away"?? Why would that happen? It's one of the few features that provides open-ended end-game play in STO... quote:Sorry, they are being removed. It was my favorite part of the game, but soon they will be gone forever. quote:I NEED to say that exploration of the various belts, clusters, expanses, and nebulas is one of my favorite things about STO in spite of the opinions of the detractors. My main, A FEDTAC did them all. Seventy (70) times each for the accolades. Now I'm sad because I did'nt finish them on my three Alts. I don't know when this is happening but I am about to leave Risa and get back to "work". I have seen all the negative comments but I only have one...there are too many Gorgans. quote:The Star Cluster missions are the only true Star Trek missions left is the game.Yes they are limited but at least they are random and you had no idea what you would get. The end game content, if you can call it content, is just replaying the same mission again, and again, and again, and again, for ever. If you are removing exploration from the game, however bad, you might as well remove the name Star Trek from the game. Adding the Neverwinter crafting system to the game is just plan lazy. Just call STO from now on Neverwinter: The Next Generation Online. The people who play this game are loving insane. News at 11.

And it's one of the few ways to "chain" missions together into an ad-hoc story independent of the existing episode string. I will be seriously disappointed if this proves to be true...

Risa must be purged.

Klytemnestra flies around the star clusters at 20% of full impulse for hours. I auto-followed him one day, got bored, made dinner, watched some netflix, and still found myself trailing him super, super slowly.
